Read about how we are working with the Chinese government to initiate reform
China-EU Public Administration Programme
As one of the partners in the Sino-European Public Administration Project, we work with the European Institute of Civil Service to assist with the reforms for the training of Chinese civil servants for public administration. We are committed to the promotion of co-operation between China and Europe in the area of civil service.
HIV/AIDS project
We are currently working in partnership with Constella Future Group and Family Health International to implement a 5-year New HIV/AIDS project funded by DfID.
EU-China Social Security Project
We are working with Ministry of Labour and Social Security to deliver an EU funded five-year Social Security project which has been launched in April 2006.
Sino-British Unemployment Insurance Project
A collaborative project between the British and Chinese governments, the Unemployment Insurance Project was originally agreed in 1999 to address issues surrounding China’s growing problem of unemployment. We have been appointed by the British government to assist in the implementation of the project.
Following the formal launch in February 2003, the project was carried out in six municipalities in the provinces of Liaoning and Sichuan. It has enhanced China’s reform efforts by improving the capacity and management systems for unemployment insurance and employment services and by increasing support provided to the unemployedand other disadvantaged or vulnerable groups.
Anti-fraud in Social Insurance Systems
We funded and organized a study visit for four officials (one Director-General and three Deputy Director-Generals) from the Ministry of Labour and Social Security to the UK and Germany in October 2006. The objective of the study tour is to examine the present measures for anti-fraud in social insurance system and to identify any areas of demonstrable best practice for consideration of adoption within the Chinese context.

We have started a three-year project to strengthen Competition and Regulation integrated policy-making in China. This involves working with various Chinese research institutions and governmental organisations to promote economic reform.
